Advises on: Garth Illingworth (UCSC) JSTAC Chair • Capabilities at launch to maximize science return, e. g. , archive, data analysis tools, and observing modes • Prioritization of capabilities offered at launch • Observing time allocation strategies, e. g. , the balance between large and small programs • Readiness status of JW Science and Operation Center • Policy implementation, e. g. , conflict resolution; availability, timing and level of support of observing modes for GOs and GTOs.

Classes of Observations Early Release Science Program - implementation recommended by JSTAC, but size/scope

Classes of Observations Early Release Science Program - implementation recommended by JSTAC, but size/scope TBD “. . to obtain images and spectra that would be used to demonstrate key modes of the JWST instruments. The goal of this program is to enable the community to understand the performance of JWST prior to the submission of the first post-launch Cycle 2 proposals that will be submitted just months after the end of commissioning. ” “The data from this `First-Look’ program would complement the Early Release Observations (ERO) and the Science Verification (SV) datasets. ” - Program will be supported by Director’s Discretionary Time, and data will be non-proprietary “The JSTAC recommends that the First-Look data be released both in raw form and with any initial calibrations as soon as possible; the key aspect is speed. ” - The JSTAC reaffirmed its support for the ERS program at its 2013 May meeting.
